- 2 whole eggs
- ¾ cup (200 ml) milk (almond, coconut, or regular)
- Salt to taste
- Optional spices (like garlic powder or herbs)
Fluffy Almond Loaf
- 7 oz (200 g) almond flour
- 1¼ cups (300 g) Greek yogurt
- 2 large eggs
- ½ tablespoon (7 g) baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon (1 g) salt
- Olive oil (for greasing)
- Sesame seeds (for topping)
High-Protein Sandwich Filling
- 2 eggs (for hard-boiling)
- Small bunch of fresh parsley (chopped)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional Parmesan cheese (grated)
- Lettuce, tomatoes, or your favorite fillings (like avocado or mushrooms)
Instructions
Almond Flatbread (Wrap)
- In a blender, combine the almonds (or almond flour), eggs, milk, salt, and optional spices. Blend until smooth.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. You may lightly grease it with a bit of olive oil if needed.
- Pour a ladle of the batter into the pan and spread it into a thin layer.
- Cook for a few minutes until the edges lift easily. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
- Remove from the pan and set aside to cool. Repeat for the remaining batter.
Fluffy Almond Loaf
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a loaf pan with olive oil and dust the bottom with sesame seeds to prevent sticking.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, Greek yogurt, eggs, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well blended.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Sprinkle extra sesame seeds on top for a bit of crunch.
- Bake for about 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice when cool.
High-Protein Sandwich Filling
- Boil the eggs for about 10 minutes until fully cooked, then let cool.
- Chop the boiled eggs and parsley in a bowl. Season with salt, pepper, and optional Parmesan cheese.
- Assemble your sandwich using the almond bread, adding lettuce, tomatoes, or your favorite fillings along with the egg mixture.
Recipe Notes
- Make sure to blend the flatbread batter until it’s completely smooth for the best texture.
- The loaf will slice better if you let it cool completely before cutting.
- Feel free to adjust the spices in the flatbread for added flavor based on your preference.
- This bread freezes well, so consider batch cooking it for easy meals.
